UM Emergency Operations Plan
The University of Montana’s Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) establishes a comprehensive, all-hazards approach to managing disasters and emergencies at UM, across a spectrum of activities including preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation.
The Emergency Operations Plan establishes policies, procedures, and organizational structure for response to emergencies or disasters that may cause a significant disruption of the functions of all or portions of the University. The plan describes the duties, roles and responsibilities of University departments and individuals in a disaster or emergency, and outlines the roles of external emergency management individuals, departments, agencies, and volunteer organizations in the event of a disaster.
Because an emergency may occur with little or no warning, these procedures are designed to be flexible in order to accommodate contingencies of various types and magnitudes. Activation of the plan will reduce the vulnerability of people and property to disaster, and establish a means to respond effectively to actual disasters or threats of disaster.
